The methyl salicylate (wintergreen oil) is the methyl ester of salicylic acid.
Methyl salicylate is produced by esterifying salicylic acid with methanol, the reaction scheme is attached to this answer. In the past, it was commonly distilled from the twigs of Betula lenta (sweet birch) and Gaultheria procumbens (eastern teaberry or wintergreen).
Answer:
Correct answer is (D). as a weak acid it can cross the membrane when in its uncharged form.
Explanation:
Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, ASA) is an analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent use in the treatment of gentle to moderate pain, inflammation and fever. It is absorb in the stomach and intestine in an unchanged form.
when the thermal energy is the energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature.
and when the thermal energy is can be determined by this formula:
q = M * C *ΔT
when q is the thermal energy
and M is the mass of water = 100 g
and C is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 joules/gram.°C
and T is the difference in Temperature = 50 °C
So by substitution:
∴ q = 100 g * 4.18 J/g.°C * 50
= 20900 J = 20.9 KJ
